The Heart of Good Health – webinar on 3rd April

Anyone interested in looking after people’s health is warmly invited to join in this webinar.

The Heart of Good Health: Supporting the Whole Person in Local Communities

 

A Webinar hosted by the Las Casas Institute, Blackfriars, Oxford

Thursday April 3rd 18.30-19.45

 

As the personal, social and economic costs of current approaches to healthcare rise, causing distress to patients and healthcare professionals, this webinar brings together experts and concerned individuals from the health service, the churches, and public life, to explore what a Catholic vision of the human person in society offers as an alternative in terms of public policy and local initiatives.

 

Speakers: Sr Margaret Atkins CRSA, “The Heart of Health – a vision for the Church and for society”; Professor James McManus, Director of Public Health, Wales, “Theology meets health policy: a Catholic contribution to health policy starts theologically and proceeds practically”; Thomas Horton, Head of Community Justice at His Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service in Wales, “Theology in action: probation and community”.
